“It doesn’t really matter,” Brees toldCanalStreetChronicles.com last week about Graham being a tight end. “At the end of the day, Jimmy Graham has revolutionized the position. He’s a guy who is so talented at so many things you know and obviously he’s a big part of our offense and I hope that they’re able to reach a long-term agreement here sooner than later.”

Graham is expected to get the largest contract for a tight end in NFL history.
